Aaaaaaaa geez, s1e7 “Sorbet” is so brutal. Hannibal goes to Bedelia and she’s like, “Oh your human veil is so nice but it must be lonely” and Hannibal is all smiles because of course, he loves being acknowledged just like everybody else so then he’s like “I have friends, we’re friendly” and she’s like “you’re my patient and colleague, we aren’t friends” and to soothe that burn, she gives him some champagne? wine? Anyway he asks for something pink.

Then Will comes to see him and Hannibal’s indirectly poking around asking, “Am I your therapist or are we having conversations?” and it’s so embarrassing, but then Will’s like “Yes, is the answer to that” all vague, and you’re like phew. Okay, fine. THEN they get to discussing the Chesapeake Ripper and Hannibal alludes to maybe the Ripper not being a solo criminal and, Will, BRUTALLY, goes “Oh now HE has a friend?” And then he LAUGHS. And it’s infuriating too because where does Will freaking Graham get off laughing at the Ripper being friendless, the only vague friendship he has IS with the Ripper!

Even prison didn’t do Hannibal this dirty. Having his toilet taken away? If this was me, this day alone would give me pre-sleep anxiety for the next 2 decades
